BOSTON – This July through October, CITGO Petroleum Corporation, along with its local New England partners, SEI Fuels, H.A. Mapes, Global Partners and Tradewinds, will help support the Red Sox Foundation through the installation of unique Red Sox-branded gas pumps at multiple CITGO stations throughout Massachusetts, Rhode Island, New Hampshire and Maine.

For customers who fill up their tanks at a Spirit Pump, a portion of their fuel purchase will be donated directly to the Red Sox Foundation. In addition to the Red Sox Spirit Pumps, customers can look for "Fuel Change" donation boxes or receive a Red Sox Foundation baseball mobile at the register by donating $1 or $5 to support the organization.

"We greatly appreciate the Red Sox pride and support that CITGO and its marketers are providing at their stations throughout New England," said Gena Borson, executive director of the Red Sox Foundation. "Not only are the CITGO Red Sox Foundation Spirit Pumps helping to fuel our enrichment programs and activities at the foundation, but they are also encouraging local residents to get involved and share the responsibility for improving our communities."

Alan Flagg, CITGO assistant vice president of supply and marketing, commented: "The Red Sox Foundation Spirit Pump initiative is just one way that CITGO and its local marketers and retailers ‘fuel good’ for others, not only in New England communities, but in cities throughout the 29 states in which CITGO operates."
